May Giveaway!

Hi Friends,

I’m just passing the halfway mark in writing Finding Her Way Home. This English historical novel follows the story of the four McAllister siblings when the younger three become British home children and are taken away to Canada without their mother’s knowledge or permission. The oldest sister sets off to find them and reunite the family, but she can’t do it alone. A young lawyer who is investigating Child emigration for the British government teams up with the oldest sister to help her search for her siblings. I hope the adventure, romance, and inspiration will make this an enjoyable story for you. The research has been fascinating for me. Here’s a look at some of my research books.

I’m anxiously awaiting this book, Carrie. It sounds so fascinating but also heartbreaking. Your research books look like they’d be interesting to read. Good luck on your writing.

I’m a subscriber and find the topic of children being adopted fascinating since my husband and I adopted a daughter and since two of my uncles are adopted. I’ll look forward to reading Finding Her Way Home.

Thank you for this giveaway, the books sound super interesting. I also loved seeing some of the books you used to write “Finding Her Way Home”! That subject fascinates me, and learning about this part of history is something everyone should do.
I do look forward to all of your newsletters. I’m already a subscriber to your newsletters.

Both those books look like they are good. Your Orphan book sounds fascinating. I live just 30 miles from the National Orphan Train Museum in Concordia, KS which showcases the plight of orphans like your book is depicting ( except yours are not really orphans). Thanks for the opportunity to win.

My mom gave me the gift of reading…and only Christian fiction. She said don’t read any books that have bad words in them or that are not Christian. Well it stuck. That is all I read..and I do it at night when I go to bed. That is my time and I love it. I get sooo engrossed in them I can’t stop reading. I love it! Thank you for this giveaway!!!

I’m already a subscriber! Thank you so much for the wonderful opportunity to win ‘Not By Sight’ and ‘A Name Unknown’!
I can’t wait to read ‘Finding Her Way Home’—It’s definitely my kind of book!
I also wanted to say congratulations on being a finalist for the HOLT Medallion!! You deserve it. 🙂
